My eyes are bleeding with the ammount of times ive seen the word GRUB on this page... :)
I started when i was 7... it was all dos and boring, but i loved tinkering. As ive gotten older, the internets evolved, more people use it, weve become more connected, and most of all, its faster....
Will the one in the Add/remove programs not work?
Thats unusual, is it just that one image? Or all images? Also, the photo is a bit meaty too, i dont know if thats caused this though. Its big (3400-2800) and just under 4mb.

*EDIT* Curses Howefield you beat me to it!
Right-click on the panel, and click "add to panel". From the list, select Menu bar, and you´re done! :) Its that easy! (I hope)
We need to be sure of your Ethernet card, can you go to terminal and post here the output of:
lspci
and
lsusb
The above peoples methods are very complicated and not efficient (no offence guys..) Just install Mountmanager from the Add/remove programs, configure to mount on start up, and away you go.
Failing that... it gets technical, but i have fixed screen res. this way before, its scary, but dont worry, it works :)
Terminal:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

Have you ever run Cairodock before on your machine?
Search for Cairodock themes on Google. :) Youll find that one soon enough, and many other great ones.
Right click on the Do icon and click preferences, it should be in there... i think you must have the correct version installed. Failing that, right click and select About Do, that will tell you the...
Im also sticking with Firefox because of the addons, theres a few i cant do without, the right click bug has happened to me before, but thats the only real glitch. The main thing for me is the speed...
Go to add/remove programs, and search for a program called Cheese, install it and see if it detects your webcam automatically, if you havent tried already. :)
I like Gnome-do´s speedyness. It feels more, integrated, plus, i have it running as a dock as well, and i much prefer it to AWN, things can only get better for this young project! :)
One thing ive noticed is that if i close firefox on linux then restart it, it takes a while, whereas on windows its almost instantanious. When Chrome comes to Linux i will be very interested to see...
This also seems popular with the Digg crowd!

Some of the comments are quite interesting...
I found this today, I had long known that Safari installed with Wine worked far faster than Firefox natively, however i had never tried Firefox on wine. This article is what im talking about;

Thats correct. Its how i did mine and i have no ill effects. :)
Make sure your up to date also:
sudo apt-get update
I dual boot to sync as well... its much easier. There is a way to sync using a VPN server... but thats just too complicated. I find it much easier to use itunes.
